For freezer and fridge I use Acurite thermometers integrated via RTL-SDR dongle. I use non rechargeable lithium ion batteries as they are rated for that low temp.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
